Okay I have the controls setup...it works now but WOW is it hard! I think I'm better off just letting my sniper computer gunner handle the gunning.
First of all the mouse is inverted, which is the opposite that IL2 was. Secondly the when you aim the gun left and right your crosshairs don't stay centered in the screen making it next to impossible to aim accurately unless he's right on your six. The turrets move very slow and controls seem clunky.
Maybe this is more realistic, as the manual says ww2 gunners weren't very accurate and they tried to simulate that. I have much more respect for real bomber gunners now after trying this out.
It's a shame to not see your gunner's hands when firing/reloading, that would be really cool. Also some of the gunner stations have very low res textures, looks almost not finished.
